The oddsmakers don’t trust the Patriots to beat the lowly Titans.
Neither the New England Patriots nor the Tennessee Titans have played particularly well so far this season, with their three wins between them as concrete proof. However, it seems like the Patriots are in a clearly better position entering their Week 9 matchup.
Not only is New England 2-6 compared to Tennessee’s 1-6, the team of head coach Jerod Mayo is also coming off a win. The Titans, meanwhile, were beaten by 38 points Sunday.
And yet, the oddsmakers don’t trust the Patriots.
According to FanDuel, New England opened...

The New England Patriots ended a tumultuous week by getting a much needed win to snap a six game losing streak. But, they lost quarterback Drake Maye with a concussion in the process which likely sets the stage for Jacoby Brissett to remain behind center next week.

Check out what the experts are saying about the Patriots heading into Week 9
Last week’s storyline has gone soft. The new thinking is head coach Jerod Mayo knew what he was doing when he publicly called out his team, and that his words spurred - or shamed - the players into action.
While Sunday was a fun win — and it’s always a good day to beat the Jets, I’m not so quick to read too much into the victory. Using the softness scale, the Jets team that showed up at Gillette Stadium ranked “custard”. The Jets were the...
I am not an advocate of tanking for a better draft position. If the New England Patriots were ever going to lose games intentionally, 2020 was the season to do it. Many factors were working against them that season. These included Tom Brady leaving, significant dead cap space, leading the NFL in COVID opt-outs, and […]

Maye played just 20 snaps on Sunday.
Drake Maye’s third career start was a rather short one for the New England Patriots.
On the rookie’s third drive of the Patriots’ Week 8 game against the New York Jets, a scramble ended with a hit to his helmet as Maye began his slide. After finishing the drive, Maye was evaluated for a concussion in the blue medical tent before being ruled out for the remainder of the game after departing to the locker room.
“I walked in at halftime and saw him. The competitor that he is, obviously he wanted to...
Analyzing the Patriots’ injury situation after their 25-22 loss to the Jets in Week 8.
The New England Patriots have a lot to feel good about exiting Week 8. Not only did they manage to put an end to the NFL’s longest losing streak by beating the New York Jets 25-22, they also escaped the contest relatively clean from a health perspective.
Of course, the one big hit they did take was a major one. With that said, let’s assess the damage after re-watching the contest.

A look at where the Patriots’ first-round selection stands after Week 8.
The New England Patriots snapped their six-game losing streak on Sunday, beating the visiting New York Jets with a final score of 25-22. As a consequence of improving to 2-6 on the year, the team now finds itself removed from the top of the draft board.
Entering Week 8, the Patriots were among four one-win teams and one of three sharing identical 1-6 records. However, with both them and the Cleveland Browns winning on Sunday the top of the 2025 NFL Draft order now looks quite different compared...
Week 8 comes to a close in Pittsburgh.
The NFL season looks to wrap up Week 8, where the Pittsburgh Steelers will be back in primetime. After winning Russell Wilson’s first start last Sunday night, Pittsburgh will look to improve to 6-2 against Daniel Jones and the New York Giants.

Go Giants! For as tough as that sounds, New England will side with the NFC in this one. | 8:15 p.m. ET, ESPN
The New England Patriots entered their Week 8 game against the New York Jets on a six-game losing streak. New England emerged with a 25-22 win. It was far from a flawless performance against a struggling Jets team. But there are no bonus points given out for beauty, and New England earned the right to […]

The Patriots parted ways with the former second-round draft pick ahead of the NFL trade deadline.
One day after making him a surprise healthy scratch, the New England Patriots have decided to trade outside linebacker Joshua Uche. The former second-round draft pick is headed to the Kansas City Chiefs in return for a 2026 sixth-round selection.
What does the move mean for the Patriots from a big picture perspective, though? Let’s assess.
With Uche as the latest domino to fall, the Patriots’ outside linebacker group continues what is quite the transformation over the last...
The August addition made three appearances in October.
After reaching the NFL limit in standard elevations, Ochaun Mathis has not yet reached the 53-man roster.
The outside linebacker reverted to the New England Patriots’ practice squad on Monday afternoon, per the transaction wire.
Mathis, 25, previously reverted after matchups against the Miami Dolphins and Jacksonville Jaguars. His third call-up of October brought four snaps off the defensive edges. The NFL sophomore also saw 18 snaps on special teams on the way to a 25-22 win over the New York Jets on Sunday.
Fellow outside linebacker Joshua Uche became a healthy...
